I have the main script and multiple functions that the script calls.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>However, some functions can call the same additional functions inside them.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The issue is that I have an error that my main script can not finish the process.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>However, each function works perfectly. Moreover, I have an issue with the last two functions in my script, so the first function from them (two last functions) will work the second won't. If I change them the first one will work no matter which one. Additionally, I can finish the process if I call the failed function but put it as the first.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>I have several loops, several layers and&nbsp; lists.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- I deleted the cursor after each loop and layers at the end of each operation ( del and&nbsp;arcpy.Delete_management).</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- I deleted each list at the end of each operation (del list)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- I gave different names for the same layers or list when I called them inside of the different functions.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- I updated my initial folder every time to be sure that the previous process would impact.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>- I restarted my computer.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Now I think that the same function could impact the process. Moreover, when I use the debugger I can see Python misses the lines in a loop that leads to the issue.&nbsp; It happens when I call the same function that I called in the previous function.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Could you please recommend me anything?</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P> Sat, 17 Apr 2021 13:07:06 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/cleaning-issues/m-p/1048430#M60836 Mick 2021-04-17T13:07:06Z https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/cleaning-issues/m-p/1048490#M60837 <P>Given you haven't mentioned which application, programming language, or environment you are using... and no code examples or error messages...</P><P>It sounds you may be using arcpy cursors - these are best used with a "with" construct (see the help) instead of manually deleting them (with del, not arcpy.Delete_management, which is for datasets and layers).</P><P>It sounds like you are trying to be very complex, I suggest breaking your problem into smaller pieces, get them working, and re-build by aggregating working pieces.</P><P>If you are using arcpy and Pro, I have found the new Jupyter notbook functionality in Pro to be really great for getting pieces of code working.</P> Sun, 18 Apr 2021 03:58:45 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/cleaning-issues/m-p/1048490#M60837 curtvprice 2021-04-18T03:58:45Z
